Bombing Iran makes much more sense, militarily. That is the lesson we should have learned from Iraq. In the early 1980s Iraq was just a few years from having nukes. Then Israel bombed their facilities and they never recovered. Similarly, the reason they didn't have any weapons of mass destruction when we invaded Iraq was because we were effective in destroying them in the first Gulf War.<br /><br />Don't get me wrong, I still think it is a bad idea. Blocking the straits of Hormuz is very asymmetrical. A couple Cole-style attacks on tankers passing through would be effective in blocking it.<br /><br />As to China, they already are cutting our credit just about as fast as they can, by not buying new bonds as old ones mature. If they tried to get out any faster, they easily could start a panic and collapse the value of the remaining Treasury bills they have.John D.

Invading ...Invading Iran for their oil is foolish.<br /><br />Invading Iran to stop their nukes is at least a little bit better of an idea.<br /><br />China cannot cut our credit without cutting their own throat. They buy our currency (thorugh bonds) because they keep their currency artificially cheap compared to ours, and buying up the excess money on our side of the ledger is a very necessary part of that operation. If they stop buying bonds, their export market will get clobbered. It would be like a Rawles style economic collapse, but in China.russell1200https://www.blogger.com/profile/16258915475311426433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937170202895477126.post-58041617917049014962012-02-26T00:32:06.084-05:002012-02-26T00:32:06.084-05:00Intelligence is not something most people can be a...Intelligence is not something most people can be accused of having...Mayberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07664966137470121099noreply@blogger.com
